Lily needs to lay still for 24 hours post cath (easier said then done). Torie and Isabelle made the trip with us to keep us company. They are making trips to the pool while Lily and I sit in the hotel and watch DVD"s. The girls are also enjoying time coloring in their new coloring book.
Dr. Bandisode gave us great news! Lily has 2 working ventricles, and if all goes well, Dr. Bradley will be able to do a bi-ventricle repair on Lily's heart. This means she will have close to normal heart anatomy once her open-heart surgery is complete. This also means she can have her surgery soon instead of waiting for surgery.
This news is an answer to prayer and could not have been better!!
Tomorrow we'll drive home to Charlotte and look at our calendar to coordinate Lily's open-heart surgery around Isabelle's open-heart surgery which is already scheduled for September.

Yahoo....doing the happy dance! Thanks for sharing your great news.
Praises! Praises! Wonderful news. I am so thankful and in awe of how her stats could be so low and yet her heart was protected. God has big plans for sweet Lily Rose and Isabelle too.
Blessings

Oh Elaine!!! What wonderful news! Time to take a deep breath of thankfulness and then go home and enjoy those sweet babies! God has been so incredibly good! May it continue to overflow! hugs from Florida, Lori McCary
Praise God! Thankful that sweet Lily Rose got such a great report!
Found your blog through Caroline's (life on Wisteria). We also had Aron in Guangzhou and completely loved her- she was so sweet with our now 3 1/2 year old daughter, Caiya. We live about 10 minutes from the University area. My daughter also loves horses.. she loved the pictures. We have a small group of families with children adopted from China- all different ages, most between 2 and 6. We'd love to have you join us for an outing soon.. email me if you are interested!
Blessings!!
Hoping all is well with your beautiful family and anxiously awaiting a post to hear how everyone is doing.
God bless,
